Help - I busted into the Class B SEATAC airspace last night, does anyone have any advice ?

Hello everyone, my name is Kobra and I am an Airspace Violator.

[Group] "Hello Kobra!"

It has now been two months since my last violation. Let me share my one and
hopefully only story:

Here is my NASA report: (you may notice that the one thing in common with
Steve's report is that we both read our moving map GPS incorrectly. I too
was zoomed in too tightly and miss read the screen. Take note that when
using a GPS for this purpose, for God's Sake, zoom the damn thing ALL the
way out to see the WHOLE class B.)

I departed Linden Airport (LDJ) VFR enroute to KGFL with one passenger on
August 23rd, 2003 at approximately 11:00 AM. I climbed to 1000' to fly the
Hudson Corridor northbound and did not contact ATC as I figured I would do
so after I was clear of the class B airspace. I was using GPS for my
primary navigation and my passenger (non-pilot) was reading the NY Terminal
Area Chart as a cross-reference. The flight conditions were clear, but very
turbulent at that altitude. My passenger became nauseous while we were
approximately at the North Hudson Park. Shortly I saw her throw the Map in
the back of the plane and become sick. I then became distracted in helping
her find a relief bag. I looked down at my GPS and saw what I thought was
our position entering the outer most ring of the NY class bravo. I saw that
I could climb to 3000' and proceeded to do so. Unfortunately I did not
realize I was not entering the outer most ring, I was entering the
second-to-last ring which only entitled me to climb to 1500'. As I was
approaching 3000' I looked at the GPS again and saw what I thought was us
leaving the class B airspace and proceeded to climb to our cruise altitude
of 5500'. During that climb I contacted approach control to receive flight
advisories. After about a minute or so the approach controller informed me
of my transgression into NY's class B airspace and gave me a phone number to
call to speak with them. Shortly after I landed I phoned the number I was
given and gave ATC my tail number. She explained the problem, listened to
my situation and then gave me several frequencies to use if I ever am in
that situation again. [report end]
